This vintage tribal bangle was handcrafted in Rajasthan, India, from ribbed segments of brass, copper and white metal, arranged in alternating bands of gold, rose and silver tones. Engraved brass plates sit over each hinge, adding a decorative finish.

The bangle opens on a hinged design for easy wearing, and one of the hinges has a pin lock that holds it securely closed. Bold, multi-metal pieces like this reflect traditional Indian metalworking skills and the striking ornaments worn by Rajasthan’s tribal and nomadic communities.

A distinctive piece of vintage ethnic jewellery, equally at home worn or displayed.

As with all our vintage pieces, this bangle is one of a kind, and natural signs of age and wear should be expected as part of its character. Dimensions and weight are approximate.
